The notes on First Aid have been based on the memorandum Safeguards in the Laboratory compiled by the Science Masters. Association and the Association of Women Science Teachers. This report has, however, been considerably modified and amplified for our purpose, and we are greatly indebted to Dr. F. B. Parsons, M.D., for very kindly supervising our final draft and thus ensuring its medical accuracy. 

Anatoly K. Babko was bom on October 15, 1905 in the province of Tomsk (Russia) to a railwayman s family. In 1908 the family moved to the Ukraine, where he graduated from secondary school in 1921. In 1922 he was admitted to the Chemistry Department of the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, and in 1928 he was accepted there for PhD study under the supervision of Professor N.A. Tananaev. In 1930 he became a lecturer at the Kyiv Institute of Food-processing Industry, and in 1934 he was appointed senior lecturer in the Department of Analytical Chemistry at Kyiv. State University where he worked for the rest of his life, working also from 1937 in the Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences. 

Arnold M. Guloy was born in Manila, in the Philippines. After graduation from Manila Science High School, he studied chemistry and received his BS degree at the University of the Philippines, Quezon City. He received his Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry from Iowa State University under the supervision of Professor John D. Corbett in 1992. After an IBM Postdoctoral fellowship at the IBM Research Center at York-town Heights, he joined the faculty at the University of Houston in 1994, where he is currently an Associate Professor. He has over 70 publications with emphasis on exploratory research in solid state... 

Laboratory, where he worked with John Longo and Allan Jacobson on the synthesis and characterization of mixed metal oxides and their application in heterogeneous catalysis. He joined the chemistry faculty of Northwestern University in 1984 where he is now Professor of Chemistry and an active member of the Center for Catalysis and Surface Science and the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center. Kenneth Poeppelmeier has published over 250 research papers and supervised approximately 40 Ph.D. students in the area of inorganic and solid state chemistry. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and has been a Lecturer for the National Science Council of Taiwan (1991), Natural Science Foundation of China (1999) and Chemistry Week in China (2004), and more recently an Institut Universitaire de France Professor (2003). 

After the study of pharmaceutical sciences in Frankfurt/Main 1 joined the Department of Clinical Physiology at the Heinrich-Heine-Universitat Diisseldorf to start my PhD work dedicated to pharmacological studies of the calcium channel blocker verapamil under the supervision of Raimund Kaufmann. He was a very liberal scientific teacher and he aUowed me to fine-tune the contents of my PhD work according to my personal preferences.

The remaining chapters cover the published literature on the common heterocycles systematically according to ring size and the heteroatoms present. We are delighted to welcome several new contributors to this volume and we thank all the authors for their expert coverage. We are also grateful to Adrian Shell of Elsevier Science for supervising the publication of the volume, and especially for his efforts to reduce the production time. 

Joji Sakurai (1858-1939) is one of the leaders of science at the beginning of the Modernization period of Japan. He was selected as one of the students send abroad by the Japanese Government at the second selection and went to London in 1878 to study chemistry under the supervision of A. W. Williamson (1824-1904). When he returned to Japan in 1881, he was immediately appointed a lecturer and soon promoted to a professor of the Imperial University of Tokyo. 

Lanny D. Schmidt is Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Minnesota. He obtained a B.S. degree from Wheaton College and a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. He has been at the University of Minnesota for more than 30 years and has supervised the thesis research of more than 70 graduate students in surface chemistry, catalytic reactions, and reaction engineering. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. 

Samuel Carda-Broch received his PhD in 2000 from the University of Valencia under the supervision of Dr. M.C. Garcia-Alvarez-Coque. He worked under a postdoctoral Marie Curie fellowship granted by the European Commission from 2001 to 2003 while working at the Laboratoire des Sciences Analytiques with Dr. A. Berthod. Since 2004, he has been a... 

Merike Vaher received her MSc degree in the field of polysaccharides in 1999 and PhD degree under the supervision of Professor Mihkel Kaljurand and Dr. Mihkel Koel in the field of ionic liquids in 2002 at Tallinn University of Technology, Estonia. Her current research interest is investigation of biologically active compounds by CE. She has received the National Science Prize twice (Estonia 1987,2006). 

Ms. Debra Y. Harton, Assistant Chemist, assisted in the laboratory work. Overall supervision of the project was the responsibility of Dr. William J. Barrett, Director, Applied Sciences Research, and Dr. Herbert C. Miller, Head, Analytical and Physical Chemistry Division. Other personnel of Southern Research Institute provided valuable advice. These include Ms. Ruby H. James, Head, Environmental Analytical Chemistry Section Dr. Thomas P. Johnston, Head, Pharmaceutical Chemistry Division and Dr. Edward B. Dismukes, Senior Research Adviser. This work was conducted under contract with NIOSH (210-78-0012) ...
